Killer strength Viagra on sale..."TheTimes"
 
Samples of the factory’s Viagra, a drug for sexual dysfunction, were tested by Pfizer, its official manufacturer, and found to contain talcum powder as well as “overdose” levels of sildenafil, the drug’s active ingredient.

Just one of those tablets would give you an "overdose," said a Pfizer spokeswoman. “The effects in men with existing diseases, such as cardiovascular conditions, may be unpredictable and potentially serious.” Other patients would be at greater risk of side effects such as headaches and dizziness The pills were supplied by an ex-pat businessman, who showed an undercover reporter around his factory in a remote village of Henan province in eastern central China. He boasted: “If you’ve been into a chemist in the UK and bought some Viagra, there’s a chance it might have come from my factory. He was secretly taped by a reporter offering a monthly supply of 600,000 fake packs of killer strength viagra for very reasonable prices.

House raided in 'Viagra' inquiry...." Irish Times"

A house in Co Monaghan has been raided under a High Court order secured by pharmaceutical giant Pfizer against a man who allegedly masterminded a lucrative operation selling fake Viagra allegedly made in China .He allegedly said he was earning £10,000 a year from the operation three years ago but last year earned “probably three hundred thousand”. He imported 15,000 boxes of Viagra  bought at a time from China, indicated he had orders from the US and Canada and was “keen to expand”.

 Viagra reflects on a good year... "Cyprus Mail"

THE IMPOTENCE drug Viagra has been enjoying huge sales since its introduction to Cyprus. "We are very satisfied with Viagra sales in Cyprus over the past year" reports Nicos Neophytou, sales manager for the drug distributor. He put per capita use as one of the highest in Europe.where a total of 104,000 prescription written in its this year. Nicosia swallowed 38.4 per cent and 33.1 per cent was taken by Limassol.The Health Ministry has been concerned lately with the amount of counterfeit viagra making it's way on to the island. Believed to be shipped here from China via Ireland. Nevertheless, Dr Tsinontides reiterated that Viagra is "definitely a prescription drug" and should be approached with caution..

Canada Reeling from Counterfeit Viagra...".National Post"

Believed to have been imported from China  This new variety of super strength Viagra is being sold on the street as "poke" at ten times the retail price and believed to have been imported from China an distributed by erant truckers.  
This is not to be confused with Viagra  the brand name for sildenafil citrate, a drug used to treat impotence.

I'm beginning to see a pattern here, Is it me or do all these stories have one thing in common.:huh:

I am innocent!!! :angel:
I am just here looking for a wife.   Anyone's wife would have done a few weeks back - but no more.  

For the time being Willy is going cold turkey on the Sidenalfil.   It is hard going - or rather its not so hard going but bloody terrible coming.      But in two days time I attend my first VA meeting.    I cannot wait to stand up, (thats not so easy these days!!!) I cannot wait to get on my feet, (thats better)  and tell the whole group that 'I am A Dick Ted'  (or I would if my name was Ted so maybe 'I am a Dick Willy'.  Now that does not sound quite right to me although others here may say that sums me up in one short sentence.

I am now a Viagra free zone and maybe ladyless if I keep it up or rather don't.

Oh yes right, over here meat is grown in handy cellophane packs :D

So how does dog taste anyway? I hear it's good ... The strangest I had was lizzard on a stick and ants ... both quite delicious, although I guess us eating snails and raw oysters and urchins in France can groce many people out as well.

He was probably BARKING up the wrong tree, or hanging around a ROUGH crowd thus he didn't find it.
